I'm 28 and have really thin lips. When I smile all you pretty much see are teeth and gums lol
I had been wanting pouty lips for a very long time but was always fearful of the dramatic change and worried what people would say. Well, I put my worries aside and decided to go for it :)

I had 2ccs of Restylane I wanted dramatic haha. I got what I wanted.
My lips got swollen. I was embarrassed to be seen in public. I stood home for 3 days lol
i was in so much pain the first 48 hours. I iced my lips and that helped but I gave in and took and ibprophen 800 (they were prescribed to me off course but for something else)
That helped tremendously!!!

Yes I did at first but I massaged my lips. I think that helped a lot. :) Did you?
March 10, 2015
Yeah I did :( I massaged but it's been over a month now so it looks like they're here to stay. I think I will get it dissolved

Thanks for sharing.  Will you add some pics of your lips once the swelling is done so we can see your final results?

So today I went in for whatever was left from the last time.
Bottom lip only.
I'm swollen.
I'm in pain not only from my swollen lips but because I had an orthodontist appointment. I got a thicker wire put on ouch.

Hello :)
I need to update. i think i'm due for 1CC.
it lasted a good 6 months.
the first month was a bit embarrassing to be honest. my lips were bruised... it looked like i had got punched in the mouth lol
then after about 2-3 months my lips relaxed a bit. i enjoyed them then. i'll post several pics....
